I pay for a Business type DSL with 5 ip addresses and I am allowed to run all my own servers. I didn't have this issue until I re-complied my kernel with the IPFIREWALL option. I have now resloved the issue. Basically what I did was move the rule for port 25 to the top of the list. Changed the add 04010 to 03001. When I did a nmap on the localhost I could see port 25 open, but when I did the nmap from one of my other servers on the same subnet, it did not list port 25. A quick reboot of the server, and all is well. Thank you all for your comments.
